5TIPS TO RECLAIM CONTROL Flexible work schedules
Company sponsored family events & activities
Allowing employees to take unpaid leave as needed for serious life changing events
As Managers set the Example model appropriate behaviours & actions & create the environment EXPECTED, ENABLED & SUPPORTED

Allow cross-over of life needs into the workplace
